These are all so impressive! I can’t even remember the last time I made cookies. I might have to start baking again.
So many ways to make beautiful and delicious.
The one in the middle of the third picture looks “architectural” in a pleasing way. Also I find it fascinating how much the dark brown cookies with the cracked surface look like loaves of rye bread.
Um, make cookies? They are the seeds of the jar plant (Crustulumcado herba, I think)! Best served lightly toasted, which is perhaps the source of the confusion…
Those are cinnamon wafers, a very regional speciality. The patterns on my modern electric iron are still the same as on my grandma’s iron one that she used on the open flame of the gas stove. It’s also her recipe.
We also still have my great-grandma’s recipe. It’s testimony that people don’t know shit when they go on about the good old times. It’s mostly flour and very little else.
I always make tons of cookies and then give them away to the kids’ teachers and so on.
